Injured and need a safe sex position

I recently dislocated my right shoulder and am in a sling that keeps my arm almost straight out, bent at elbow for at least 4 weeks. Anyone know of any safe sex positions that won't injure my arm? I cannot put weight on it and DH is worried about missionary because of my arm position...

 

TIA

Re: Injured and need a safe sex position

  • lying on your left side, with your husband either spooning you, or kneeling on the bed holding your right leg up?

    Sorry for your injury! Hope it heals quickly!

  • OUCH

    Could you have your H sit in a chair and you sit on his lap? You could either face him or face away from him.

    You could also do the reverse cowgirl, as in, you are on top while he is lying in bed, but you are facing the opposite way. If he bends his knees, you could put the weight of your torso against them and use your left arm for stability.

    Maybe I am the only one, but I can't ever seem to get a good penetration angle from spooning. (Well, except for that one extremely drunk weekend in Mexico.)

    Hope is not a strategy.
  • Missionary worked fine for me when I dislocated my shoulder.  Just tell him to elevate himself and not put any weight on your upper body.  Hope you feel better soon.

  • You could also lay on your back with your bum at the edge of the bed and he could stand. I try to get my husband to do it be he's lazy and doesn't like to stand. lol

  • What position do you sleep in most comfortably? You could try it that way.
